Private Reserve Blue Suede

Ink: Private Reserve Blue Suede

Pens Used: Jinhao x750 ( and Lamy Safari (M)

Paper: Georgia Pacific Premium Bright Paper (90g/m^2)

Private Reserve calls this ink "Blue Suede," but it is more of a blue-green color. Despite not being very blue, this is a very cool color, and it is pretty unique. I found this ink to have very interesting and plenty of shading, while still remaining quite saturated. The dry time was average, and I did notice slight feathering and minimal smearing. The ink bled through in the slightest bit, but is still above average in that aspect.

On to the chemical tests. The dip test annihilated the ink, and you can see there was ink on the page, but it is impossible to read what was there. After the bleach test there is some trace remaining, but it is not a blue color. I would not use this ink for checks. Also this ink performed well below average on the drip test.

Very nice review. I am very fond of this colour.

This was one of the first Private Reserve inks that I bought. Because I was expecting it to be bluer than it is, I put it aside as not to my taste.

However, I recently revisited the ink and I've found it to be great for editing/marking up text. It's well-behaved and bright enough to stand out without being tiring to read.
